Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are a key communication document to provide information on the hazardous properties of chemical products and advice on risk management to reduce exposure to acceptable levels as well as advice on remedial action in case of accidents.

Anyone handling or supplying hazardous chemicals will already be familiar with the SDS and everyone supplying mixtures in the UK and EU 27 - from importers to formulators - needs to understand the SDS and how REACH affects it (EU/UK). For the writing SDS, getting the format correct is the easy part if following guidance, but to do this correctly, there must be an in depth knowledge of chemical safety control.

Register for this workshop to help you ensure your SDS is fit for purpose, and that you fully understand SDS provided by suppliers – and to check suppliers are providing you with appropriate details.

***This half day seminar will take place during the morning of Thursday 31st October 2024***

Back in 2021, Defra made a commitment to explore alternative arrangements for UK REACH transitional registrations to minimise costs for businesses following the end of the Brexit transition period. Since then, the registration deadlines have been extended to give time for the model to be developed. 2024 is an important year, as the UK authority consults on the new model, with changes to legislation expected to follow.

The REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of CHemicals) Regulation affects almost every chemical substance that you manufacture, import or use to make your products and to run your processes.

REACHReady's most popular workshop, this introductory workshop is an excellent place to start for those who are beginning to define their REACH obligations, aimed at business and regulatory managers and practitioners working in companies that make, import or use chemicals and for those who are new to the regulation. Ideal for anyone who needs to understand more about their obligations under the EU27 and UK REACH Regulations, and also of interest to suppliers of substances and mixtures who are looking to support their EU and UK customers on REACH.

***This workshop will be delivered online and split over 2 half day sessions - am Wednesday 11th and am Thursday 12th December 2024.***

As more SVHCs come under the regulatory spotlight and the number of customer enquiries your company receives regarding chemicals of concern grow, you will be ever more reliant on a robust supply chain management system to ensure REACH compliance as part of product stewardship.

This workshop will outline the essentials of a compliance strategy that will help you identify if you are doing all you can to comply, recognise where business risks are likely to occur and how to minimise them and develop and maintain your strategy for compliance as part of good product stewardship. The implications of the UK withdrawal from the EU will be discussed throughout each session.

Aimed at business managers and regulatory specialists in companies that supply articles within the UK and EU. Of particular relevance to companies working through the requirements in the REACH Regulation for finished goods, sub-assemblies and components. Also of interest to importers and producers of articles alike, who are dealing with supply chain communication obligations and verifying product compliance.
